Hello and thank you for your support. We've got a big Q3 deadline on Monday night and we are on track to hit our goal, but we can’t relax until the quarter ends!
I’m writing this after a couple days campaigning in New Hampshire -- and the takeaway is we’re going to need bigger venues.
I’ve been visiting New Hampshire since early last year, and things have changed a lot since then. On Thursday night in Peterborough, we drew an overflow crowd which resulted in people getting turned away at the door:
We had an enormous group of hundreds at UNH, and then we were over capacity in Nashua.
Everywhere we went there were familiar faces and new ones. One thing I love about New Hampshire is that voters come see you speak multiple times and bring new friends each time. It’s very human -- it’s national politics as a town campfire.
Among the things I heard from voters:
“I’m a Trump voter that’s now voting for you.”
“You’re the only candidate I’m excited about. I’m telling all of my friends.”
“I saw you speak at the convention in Manchester, and you were the best candidate of all 19. I was falling asleep until you got up there.”
A recent poll had me beating Donald Trump head-to-head in New Hampshire by 8 points. The same poll had Elizabeth Warren losing by 2 points.
Our team is growing in New Hampshire too -- we are adding new staffers regularly and should double within the next month. We've opened several new offices, too.
One thing I enjoy about New Hampshire is that getting there is a pleasant drive through the beautiful countryside. If you are looking to make a difference for the campaign, phone banking or even canvassing in New Hampshire is a great way to go -- if you convince one voter in New Hampshire, you’ll feel a deep sense of accomplishment. It's a phenomenal feeling.
The people of New Hampshire will make their voice heard next February. I will be back soon. And next time, we’ll book the biggest venues we can find. I have the feeling that we’ll need them.
Let’s finish this quarter strong!

P.S. If you can pitch in before our deadline it would be a huge help.
Our end-of-quarter deadline is Monday, September 30 at 11:59PM and after that, our fundraising numbers will go public for the world to see. Donate now so we can show everyone how powerful this movement is.
